Abdominal Compartment Syndrome
Irish Journal of Medical Science, 2006Abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) is a systemic syndrome involving derangement in cardiovascular haemodynamics, respiratory and renal functions as a result of sustained increase in intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) ending in multi-organ failure. It is a life threatening emergency and requires prompt action and treatment.

Two cases of forearm compartment syndrome in neonates are presented. The compartment syndrome may be initiated before actual delivery and may appear in an advanced stage. In both children good clinical results were achieved when standard guidelines for managing compartment syndrome and established Volkmann's contracture were applied. Although uncommon,

Abdominal Compartment Syndrome
Southern Medical Journal, 1998The abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) is a newly appreciated and potentially fatal consequence of increased intra-abdominal pressure. It can be due to either trauma or surgery, as well as numerous medical conditions. Prolonged, unrelieved elevation of intra-abdominal pressure can produce pulmonary compromise, renal impairment, cardiac failure, shock,

Gluteal compartment syndrome is a rare disorder that most often occurs in conjunction with prolonged immobility after a sedative overdose but also may result from direct trauma. Patients present with localized tenderness, induration, and pain with passive flexion of the gluteal muscles.

Osteofascial Compartment Syndrome
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2011The free fibula osteocutaneous flap has been widely used in the reconstruction of facial bone, especially the mandible. Donor-site morbidity for free fibula osteocutaneous flap is generally considered to be low and minor. However, a severe and rare complication, osteofascial compartment syndrome (OCS), should be paid more attention to after the ...

Acute compartment syndrome is a serious complication of injury. It occurs when raised pressure within a closed osteofascial compartment compromises the circulation and function of tissues within the compartment. Most cases are caused by fracture. The largest group are tibial diaphyseal fractures, followed by soft tissue injury, crush syndrome, distal ...

Extremity Compartment Syndromes
2016All surgeons caring for patients with trauma to the extremities or practicing vascular surgery must be able to recognize and surgically treat compartment syndromes. Compartment syndrome (CS) results from a variety of etiologies with the final common pathway being increased compartmental pressure that exceeds the arterial inflow with resultant ischemia ...

Gluteal compartment syndrome (GCS) is a rare condition but undiagnosed it can be fatal. Because only a few cases are reported, the condition is not well characterized. This is a case report of a 56-year-old male who developed GCS most likely due to surgery and post-operative immobilization. We would like to increase the attention on GCS with respect to

Exertional Compartment Syndrome
Clinics in Sports Medicine, 2010Chronic exertional compartment syndrome should be considered in any runner experiencing exertional leg pain. Runners typically describe a tight, cramping ache over the involved compartment that commences at a reproducible point in the run and resolves with rest.

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2001
FCS is a recognized clinical entity that has few consistent clinical signs except tense swelling. A high degree of clinical suspicion is necessary to provide appropriate treatment. Invasive direct pressure monitoring is needed to diagnose FCS. High-energy injuries are known to cause FCS, but individual risk factors, such as prolonged venous occlusion ...
